Do you see any benefit to wearing a mask alone in a car with the windows up while driving?...or alone while in your house?

I strongly disagree that wearing a mask ONLY protects one from infecting others. I have a small supply of N95 masks I plan on using while making my trip back home to NH. They alone are not the only precautions being taken. Unlike in CA. where wearing a face covering are now mandated when in stores or outdoors where 6 feet of separation are not reasonable to obtain, in NH there are no such requirements. In my small town, people have made it very clear that they do not feel the need to wear a mask, however they are very concerned about getting infected by "out of staters". Go figure!
